O Lord, thy sacred courts appear
Fain would my longing passions meet
The glories of thy presence there.
2 O, blest the men, blest their employ,
Whom thy indulgent favors raise
To dwell in these abodes of joy,
And sing thy never-ceasing praise.
3 Happy the men whom strength divine,
With ardent love and zeal inspires;
Whose steps to thy blest way incline,
With willing hearts and warm desires.
4 One day within thy sacred gate,
Affords more real joy to me,
Than thousands in the tents of state;
The meanest place is bliss with thee.
5 God is a sun; our brightest day
From his reviving presence flows;
God is a shield, thro' all the way,
To guard us from surrounding foes.
6 He pours his kindest blessings down,
Profusely down on souls sincere;
And grace shall guide, and glory crown
The happy favorites of his care.
7 O Lord of hosts, thou God of grace,
How blest, divinely blest, is he,
Who trusts thy love and seeks thy face,
And fixes all his hopes on thee! Topics: Worship Public Worship; Happiness Of humble worshippers; Public Religion; Pleasures of Worship; Excellency of worship Scripture: Psalm 84 Languages: English

Psalm LXXXIV
Hymnal: Poems on Subjects Chiefly Devotional, Vol. 2 #188 (1760) First Line: How lovely, how divinely sweet Lyrics:
I. How lovely, how divinely sweet,
O Lord, thy sacred courts appear!
Fain would my longing passions meet
The glories of thy presence there.
II. With strong desire my spirit faints,
I languish for thy blest abode;
This throbbing heart, oh, how it pants!
And all my pow'rs cry out for God.
III. The sparrows near thy altar live,
And swallows there a nest obtain;
My God, my King, and wilt thou give
To birds, what I desire in vain?
IV. Oh, blest the men, blest their employ,
Whom thy indulgent favours raise
To dwell in these abodes of joy,
And sing thy never-ceasing praise.
V. Happy the men, whom strength divine
With ardent love and zeal inspires;
Whose steps to thy blest way incline,
With willing hearts and warm desires.
VI. Thro' Baca's thirsty vale they go;
But God commands, and springs arise,
And show'rs descend with copious flow,
To yield the pilgrim full supplies.
VII. Still they pursue the painful road,
Increasing strength surmounts their fear;
'Till all at length before their God,
In Sion's glorious courts appear.
VIII. O Lord of hosts, attend my pray'r,
Our fathers' God, thy ear incline;
Shield of our lives, reveal thy care,
And on thy own anointed shine.
IX. One day within thy sacred gate,
Affords more real joy to me,
Than thousands in the tents of state;
The meanest place is bliss with thee.
X. God is a sun; our brightest day
From his reviving presence flows;
God is a shield, thro' all the way,
To guard us from surrounding foes.
XI. He pours his kindest blessings down,
Profusely down on souls sincere;
And grace shall guide and glory crown
The happy fav'rites of his care.
XII. O Lord of hosts, thou God of grace,
How blest, divinely blest, is he,
Who trusts thy love and seeks thy face,
And fixes all his hopes on thee! Scripture: Psalm 84 Languages: English
